CODE 104-Key Mechanical Keyboard - Cherry MX Brown

Product Review (submitted on May 3, 2017):

I bought this keyboard -- and paid $30 extra to have spacers added -- because I hate the noisy clack-clack of cheap, lightweight keyboards. But when it arrived, I tested the sound against my wife's $20 Lenovo keyboard, and the CODE was just as loud. Furthermore, the white lettering on the keys was so faint that I could barely see them. I immediately packed up the keyboard -- which cost nearly $200 -- and will bring it to the post office today. I do appreciate the heavy, solid feel of the CODE, but the noise reduction just wasn't as advertised.

**REPLY FROM WASD KEYBOARDS**
Apologies the sound dampeners did not perform to your needs. Any rubber dome keyboard will be quieter than a mechanical, even with sound dampening. The switches will always make some noise.

The CODE is a backlit keyboard so the lettering is a bit understated when the backlight is not on, again apologies if this was unexpected.
